GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions I shall ask regarding same; with special reference to stone in right ureter and method of treatment for eliminating it.
-
EC: Yes, we have the body here, [843]; this we have had before.
-
As we find, in some respects there is a great deal of improvement - while in others there is growing to be more anxiety and a greater disturbance.
-
So, unless there is kept a normal equilibrium in the assimilating system, we may produce - through the nervous reaction - greater disturbances.
-
As for those conditions that exist regarding stone, we find that this has diminished greatly in the size.
-
Yet there have not been the full applications that have been indicated, either of the Mullein Stupes or of the Turpentine Stupes. While these have caused some irritation and an upsetting, it was more of a nerve condition than of other natures. And we find that if these were used occasionally it would be well. If they upset, then leave them off. But to use them occasionally will assist the system in so diminishing the accumulation as to cause same to break up.
-
As for those disturbances which we find in the digestive system, there must be greater precautions taken in the diet. Keep those things that are strengthening and easily assimilated - they are the better. We have outlined a diet for the body, with those disturbances that once arose in the digestive forces of the body. This adhered to, in a manner that is in keeping with the general conditions, would be most advisable in the present. We would include all of those foods that are easily assimilated, as indicated.
-
Also we would use the Appliance that has been once indicated for the body through this channel, as an equalizer of the energies and the activity of the nerve system as related to impulses in the circulatory forces. This would materially improve the conditions for the body.
-
Also a little activity by the body in the open is advisable, rather than being too dormant. For while there must not be such an activity as to upset the whole system, as to produce or cause a strain or such activities as to produce acute conditions, we find that such activities as to give some outlet for the mental as well as the physical forces would be the more advisable.
-
Ready for questions.
-
(Q) Give chemical analysis of stone in my right ureter. (A) This as we find is a concentration of sedimentary forces as combined with the acids from kidneys and secretions of such natures; or the refuse forces accumulated by the activity from the lack of distributing forces in the system.
-
(Q) How far above the bladder is the stone now? (A) About an inch to an inch and a quarter.
-
(Q) Is the stone “in a pocket” and is it causing irritation, and infection? (A) It is naturally pocketed, as might be called, by the lymph flow of the system, but not in a pocket in such a manner that the activities of the properties indicated would not make for activity upon same.
It is NOT producing irritation, and does not - unless there are sharp edges, or the attempt of the system to expel same.
-
(Q) Am I getting sufficient drainage through my right ureter? (A) Sufficient drainage in the present, and more may be obtained with the use of the vibratory forces indicated for equalizing the activity of the impulses of the system, as well as for the assistance that this would give to the general digestive forces of the body.
-
(Q) What is present condition of kidneys? bladder and right ureter? (A) The right ureter, as indicated, is choked by those natural activities from the position of the stone - but draining.
As we find, the bladder - naturally there are some inflammatory forces from congestion, as would be indicated from the presence of stone.
Kidneys - very much better than they have been heretofore.
- (Q) Do I have aluminum or arsenate of lead poisoning? (A) Neither of these; though the effect of aluminum - or effect upon the body by foods being cooked in same - adds to rather than detracts from the activities in the system.
Hence, as we have indicated for many who are affected by nervous digestion or an overactivity of the nerve forces during the state of digestion taking place, the body should be warned about using or having foods cooked in aluminum. For this naturally produces a hardship upon the activities of the kidneys as related to the lower hepatic circulation, or the uric acid that is a part of the activity of the kidneys in eliminating same from the system.
-
(Q) What is present condition of my stomach? (A) This, as just indicated, is affected a great deal by the general anxiety; but it is more of a reflex condition. Thus, with the use of the influences indicated that would create an equal balance in the activities of same, this would be much improved.
-
(Q) Please give cause and treatment for pain in my abdomen, one inch to right of my navel. (A) The choking, as it were, of the emptying of the duodenum itself. This is caused from a nervous contraction. And with the use of the diets as indicated, with a little activity and the equalizer, this should disappear.
-
(Q) What is present condition of my colon and intestines? (A) Inflammatory forces - that is, to some extent. The use of colonic irrigations at times would be advisable.
-
(Q) Please give condition and treatment of my right inguinal hernia. (A) This as we find naturally from the general strain and the nerve forces upon the whole of the system has caused some uneasiness. If there had been the corrections, or if there WOULD be a correction in the lumbar sacral, and the 11th and 12th dorsal - osteopathically made - we would find a great deal of help for the whole of the eliminating system, as well as the casement through which the hernia appears.
-
(Q) Am I getting any infection from my two upper right molars, and which one or both should be extracted? (A) None that would cause a disturbance unless the mind is allowed to dwell upon same. If these cause disturbance or make for anxiety, have them attended to locally. These are only a portion of the nervous reactions, and not of a natural condition through a pathological reaction.
-
(Q) Will I be benefitted or harmed by using an Electronic Bio-Normalize from Dr. S. R. Love, St. Petersburg, Fla.? [S. R. Love, D.O.]
(A) As we find, and as indicated, if there are the low electrical forces from the vibrations of the Appliance which we once indicated, [Radio-Active Appliance - see 843-6, Par. 18-A] this would be MORE beneficial than the nature of the equalizer as used by that character of machine. One is that which will ASSOCIATE self with the vibratory forces of the body, and the other creates one of itself.
- (Q) Will a substance known as “Mineral Food” and sold by W. L. Jameson, 317 Flat Iron Bldg., Denver, Col., be of value for my condition? (A) Not necessarily. The food values from fresh vegetables that are prepared are better than all the combinations of those that are allowed to set or rest. While it is necessary for the vitamin activities through the system, these may be obtained by a better balance being kept in the vital forces as may be obtained from fresh vegetables, fruits and nuts than from concentrated forces such as those.
Do these things as indicated, as we find, and we will make for better conditions for this body of [843].
- We are through with this Reading.

Reports & Follow-up
R1. 8/17/38 Sister [678]‘s letter: “Please tell me where to get the Radio-Active appliance, the price and full directions for my brother. Since he is coming here with us we want to do our best to help him get well. I didn’t try to get the Appliance for him there, as I did not know if he could use it alone, not even any help getting it ready for him. In 1935 his first reading [843-1] indicated the Wet Cell Battery. I think that, too, helped him.”
R2. 8/19/38 EC wrote Mrs. [687] that he thought the Wet Cell Appliance as first suggested would also be very well for Mr. [843] to use now, to help him get rid of that nervousness; he might borrow sister [264]‘s Radio-Active Appliance also, which [264] had gotten from Mrs. [1195] but never used.
R3. 8/25/38 [843]‘s letter to EC:
… Avenue Asheville, N.C.
Mr. Edgar Cayce, Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va.
Dear Mr. Cayce:-
I was very happy to get your friendly and encouraging letter of the 17th, and I would have written you sooner and expressed my appreciation for the wonderful reading which you gave me on Monday of last week but for the fact that I have been the victim of a so-called “bad cold” since Wednesday of last week. My cold is much better now, and I shall proceed to carry out your reading suggestions to the letter - will use the batteries, stupes and everything.
I am convinced that you could not possibly give me such an accurate reading if it were not for the fact that you receive your power from God. I think it is perfectly wonderful that you should be so Divinely gifted, and the nicest thing about it all is the fact that you use your extraordinary endowments only for the good of humanity.
I have visited some of the best medical doctors in the country the past few years but they have been 99% wrong in their diagnostic and treatment methods, whereas, I am confident that your diagnostic and treatment suggestions are just 100% right, and since I was helped so much in 1935 by following your suggestions you may now bet your last dollar that I shall immediately start to doing all the things which you have suggested in the six readings which you have given me, and, six months from today I am confident that most of my present troubles will be gone, and that I will be enjoying a degree of health which I have not known for many years.
So, I thank God for you and your Divinely appointed assistance.
I expect to go to Washington in a week or ten days so that my sister, [678], and mother can help me put your program over as it should be. I will then secure real results, and will keep you posted regarding my progress.
My sister [264], wrote me a very fine interpretative letter regarding your last reading. I wish to thank you for having done so much for her. I believe she will soon be well.
With all good wishes, I am
Sincerely yours, [843]
R4. 9/22/38 Sister [678] sent questions for her brother’s Life Reading, saying: “[843] seems much better and stronger in many respects and he attributes much of his improvement to the several very fine readings which you have given him. He is adhering to the diet and other treatment methods suggested by you, including the use of the two batteries - daily.”
R5. 9/26/38 Sister [678] wrote asking that a Ck. Physical be given instead of the Life Reading at the time appointed:
Since [843] will go through Durham he wants you to give him a physical reading at this time so he will be in a position to know whether he should stop at Duke Hospital and consult Dr. Alyea or Dr. Ruffing or some other doctor there regarding his present condition, especially in relation to the stone.
I feel confident that you will gladly switch the physical reading in place of the life reading at this time. He will carry out your instructions to the letter, as he has unlimited faith in you. If you think he should see a doctor at Duke at this time he will do so, otherwise he will continue on to Asheville and use your treatment suggestions.
I am wiring you tonight, asking you to change the readings, as indicated above. On Wednesday night, after 7 P.M. I wish you would call me over the phone - charges reversed - Cleveland …, Apartment …, and read [843]‘s reading to me, or at least give me the high lights in the reading, so he will know whether or not he should stop in Durham the following day. On the afternoon of Wednesday, after the reading has been typed, I wish you would send it to [843] to the following address: …, Malbourne Hotel, Durham, N.C., so he will receive it about noon on September 29th. Please send the letter Special Delivery, and I am enclosing stamps for that purpose.
I wish you would mail a copy of the reading to me.
